Summary: Warning! This camera has a manufacturer defect!
Review: This camera has a defect that wont let it recognize some SD cards, but it doesnt show up until after you have taken some shots. I took 50 pictures on vacation, then the camera went dead. It turns out that there was a defect which you can read about on Canon's website that causes ALL these cameras to malfunction until you download and install a patch. Buyer Beware! i lost all 50 irreplaceable vacation pictures, and you will too.

Summary: Great For Snapshots, Simple.
Review: This camera is extremely stylish and compact. Great for snapshots and other pictures of friends and things like that, but if you plan on taking lots of pictures of sporting events or nature, go with a camera with better optical zoom. Other than the zoom, the feature-set is simple and straightforward, perfect for someone who just wants pictures without the fuss.

Summary: AMAZING CAMERA
Review: THIS CAMERA ROCKS.
I average about 100 photos a day plus a few videos 7 days a week. This camera has been totally abused, Its been dropped almost 10 times, somtimes from about 6 feet landing on tile and concrete surfaces. Ive spilled beer all over it 3 times so its been soaking wet and all i do is dry it off and its fine. It been in the rain, the snow, the heat, the humidity, and below zero tempertures. The lense has 3 dents in it, one from a metal cup being thrown at it by an angry photo subject where the lense was smashed in about 1/4 of an inch on an angle, and all i did (the next morning while sober) was just click out the lense and it worked FINE hahah. A few of my friends have digital cameras that broke just from them bumping into a table with the camera in their pocket. This little Canon can take anything and I recommend it to ANYONE who brings their camera with them wherever they go. Its small and compact, sturdy, takes excellant photos (excepcially of hot chicks) in all conditions, great options, fun options like sounds and custome start up images, easy to use menu, and fits well in my hand. The lanyard is also of great design and makes the camera even more secure. IF this camera EVER breaks I will instantly buy a new one as I believ it is the only camera that can take the abuse I give it.

BUY THIS CAMERA!

Summary: $300 but every dollar well worth it!
Review: this cannon camera is very good. i used to have a kodak camera but it kept on breaking down.so this christmas i got a new one! i was very satisfied with its quality, and compatibility. it has programs like zoom browser, video impression, and photo impression. with these programs(you can almost do anything with the pictures). in conclusion this camera is yet the best one i've ever owned and i also like the video recording feature its VERY! fun (if u know what i mean)! HAHAHA and its also very light and small. it fits almost anywhere. it is good for trips. by car and plane cause of its small size. and theres so many more things to write about but i dont have the time and dedication to do it so. if your still reading this your reading your wasting your time and GO buy it NOW!

Summary: Nifty Gadget
Review: This is a nifty little gadget; light in weight; fits comfortably in hand; slick in style.
The 2X optical zoom is weak; but for a casual leisure photograph it does the job. The 3.2 MP gives a sharp image.

On the whole I do not have any problems with it. Except the one issue I had in formatting the memory stick. Well in my experimentation I went ahead and formatted the memory with an expectation that there will be a warning to the nature of "Are you Sure you wish to format Memory". Well to my utter despair I was served no such warning and have lost a few memorable pictures. I was told that a friend had similar issues with an earlier version. I am surprised that Cannon has not corrected this on this newer version.

Summary: sd100 is excellent
Review: This is a really good product so far. i bought this item because of the sd functionality. I have a Sharp zaurus pda with a sd slot and wi-fi so transferring pics and movies to my computer is accomplished by putting the sd card in my pda and wirelessly transferring directly into the folder on the hard drive which i want.

I had a sony digital mavica and the picture quality was really starting to bother me, so i was very satisfied with the image quality.

Another great thing about this camera is the video out jack. I am using it for a super high resolution web cam for gnomemeeting in linux now.

The only thing i didn't like is that it only comes with a 10M sd card. This is ok for some pictures but will eat up the movie time. However i am glad i didn't have to pay an extra $200 on the camera price for a 512M.

Summary: Excellent Camera
Review: Very easy to use. good quality pics for a 3.2MP camera. Great size. Canon should include a bigger memory card than the measly 16MB supplied...which are not that expensive. would highly recommend.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Great for the average camera user
Review: We just bought this camera a little over a month ago, and we love it. We took it to New York and got some great pictures - but the biggest advantage of it on that trip, was the size. I do reccommend buying a larger memory card - the one that comes with it will only hold about 16 pictures. We're still finding new advantages to having this camera each time that we use it. I highly reccomend it.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Meets all expectations for an affordable price!
Review: You can take truly amazing pictures with this little pocket size camera. It is my first digital Canon and I am very impressed by the quality, the durability of the battery and the handsome design. Check it out! You'll enjoy this one!
